Comfort in Sorrow by David McGee Pdf

Comfort in Sorrow: Living After the Death of a Loved One stands ready to support the individual who faces the greatest challenge in his or her life: living after the death of a loved one. Drawing upon three and one half decades of experiences as a pastor, hospice chaplain, and counselor, David C. McGee presents approachable, engaging, and gentle treatments that define grief, that offer healthy ways to express grief, that unmask some of the misconceptions about grief, and that help to dismantle the barriers that stand in the way of embracing grief's healing effects. Comfort in Sorrow organizes ninety seven units on diverse topics into five sections that cover the various ways grief makes its influence known after a loved one dies. The sections' titles give a sense of the journey one may take by reflecting on the comfort the book offers: I cannot believe this has happened, How bad can this get, Somewhere between what was and what will be, Reclamation, repossession, and restoration, and Rediscovering yourself. When-not if-someone you care about dies, Comfort in Sorrow: Living After the Death of a Loved One can give you the tested and dependable guidance that emerges from reflecting upon decades' of encounters with people in the midst of grief. It provides ways for you to practice self-care when you are mourning and suggests how to accept your loss, to embrace the strengths of human nature, and to trust in God.

Living with Grief by Kristian Kincaid Pdf

Life will be rudely interrupted by death. There's no way around that truth; no one is immune from death. Christians, though comforted by the promise of the resurrection, still are vulnerable to the emotional and physical effects that come with grief. Those dealing with grief often just need permission to grieve, yet retain hope and comfort for the future. Often, they just want someone to hear their voice. Author Kristian Kincaid, a pastor for more than 30 years who has counseled countless griving people and who has experienced the grief of losing his sister on the plane that crashed into the Pentagon on 9/11, understands and will listen. He takes readers on a journey that acknowledges that pain is real and is hard, and that struggle can last years, but also that grievers do not grieve along and that there is hope: that Jesus lives and death has died.

Comfort in Times of Sorrow by Roger Carswell Pdf

A sailing ship spreads her white sails to the morning breeze as she sets sail for the ocean. She looks beautiful and strong. You watch the ship until it seems like speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky meet each other. Someone next to you says, "There, she's gone." But has she gone? She is just as large in mast and hull as she was when she left the shore. Just at the moment when someone says, "She's gone"; another voice on a distance shore shouts, "She's here!." Death is similar. Earth's loss is eternity's gain. Each one of us has an endless existence, first in this world, and then in the next. May you be comforted in your grief with these words of encouragement

Braving Sorrow Together by Ashleigh Slater Pdf

“Little did I know at the time that I’d one day look back and remember it as the beginning of what I call our ‘weeping years.’” — Ashleigh Slater We all have “weeping years,” seasons where the trials seem to come one after another. For Ashleigh and her husband, their weeping years included miscarriage, multiple job losses, feelings of betrayal, panic attacks, anti-depressants, cross-country moves, and even suicidal thoughts. Loss is a constant of life, but the intensity of those years changed Ashleigh, altering how she understood and responded to grief. This book tells her story. Braving Sorrow Together: The Transformative Power of Faith and Community When Life is Hard explores loss and trial in a conversational, storytelling manner. It gently encourages those experiencing grief of any kind to seek comfort in God and in the “me too” of community. Ashleigh gives an honest and vulnerable account of her personal stories of loss, as well as those of her friends, with reflections from literature and Scripture sprinkled throughout. She examines the nature of grief and loss in several universal arenas, such as relationships, health, career, and the home. Anyone who ever struggles (and that’s all of us) will be able to move through trial with more wisdom, releasing anxiety and receiving the help and comfort God so bountifully provides. Readers of Braving Sorrow Together will be encouraged that they are not alone, inspired to reach out to close friends, and reminded that God—the Author of all of our stories— can be trusted through the tears. Includes an appendix with further reflections on leaning into community in difficult seasons.
